Well, there is humor aplenty from the casting couch. This film was mostly a leftie vehicle to trash the past but did provide a few human moments. Bale, Adams, and Rockwell made this thing watchable. For some reason, the height differences between the perps bothered me. Carell played Rummy as a midget, ie. (Just joking.)

Found it interesting (if it is true) that Cheney was a typical young drunk capable of getting into fights and getting bounced out of Yale. For him to survive two DWIs and expulsion from Yale says something.

I'm probably one of a very few righties who doesn't feel outraged or incensed at the script. I laughed enough as it were and I still admire Cheney for being a smart, decisive fellow who did big, important things.

The film is not an equal rights toss-up. With producers Pitt and Ferrell, it could not be a feel good for the conservatives in the audience. But, it is entertaining enough to sit through.

I encourage righties to see it just to see what the "other" side is pushing.
